Remember when I mentioned that my song co-written with Denis Loiseau “No More Secrets/No More Lies” was recently picked up by a couple of music industry execs?
Last night I received and today I agreed to a contract from one of those execs in Hollywood giving him the right to pitch it to a music-based TV show and outlining what percentages of the license fee each party would receive if the show uses the song. Please note the word “IF” in my last sentence. Small word, big impact.
Each step is a long-shot and there are more steps to go, but it is an important next step and I am excited.
I appreciate all of you who take the time to listen to my songs. That means a LOT to me because a song is dead until listeners bring it to life.

Congratulations!!! Exciting news even with the if :).
Thank you, Boomie!
Congrats Russ, well deserved! Even if there is IF… you’re just talented! Btw, “What kind of man does that” is stuck in my head….was singing it in my head, while doing the dishes today ;D
Thank you for your feedback, support, and compliment. I’m glad that song resonates with you. Your comment brought a smile to my face.

WOO HOO!
Is that a train I hear coming? ;-D! Seriously, thank you! I love WOO HOO’s!
Russ
LOL!!
I am so pleased for you, Russ. Even if the IF doesn’t end up coming to fruition THIS time, keep singing, keep writing, keep trusting. There always is a next time. It’s all in God’s hands – and in your wonderful shared gifts. Thank you for sharing with us!
Thank you, Jan. I’m not worried, and sometimes even forget all about it for a day at a time. I have a lot of wonderful things going on in my life, and while having a song on a TV show would be pretty cool, it certainly doesn’t come close to making it onto my onto my “Needs” list. I’ve already got everything I need plus a whole lot of additional blessings. If it happens, great! If it doesn’t happen, that’s great too. Given my druthers, and if I could only have one of them, I’d MUCH rather have the “You Are A Star” project to lift the spirits of seriously ill or injured young children and their families be successful than have my songs placed in TV shows or films. I would get a MUCH bigger feeling of satisfaction helping kids. I’m not saying I wouldn’t be happy to hear one of my songs was placed in a show, just that I will be happy and view myself as successful whether or not that ever occurs.
Russ
You have a healthy attitude, Russ. Tell me more about your “You Are a Star” project.
